[ros-users] running ROS on FreeBSD

Mon Mar 22 17:08:18 UTC 2010

Hi Tully,

after working around ticket 2176, i.e. invoking the build of
rosconsole manually,
I stumbled upon a lot of compiler errors related to log4cxx.  From the log
(warnings related to uninitialized boost members removed):

Does this happen because the log4cxx port on  FreeBSD is behind (0.9.7
instead of 0.10.0) ?
